North Berkeley Hills Tranquil Writer's retreat
Camille’s retreat is a true oasis, where you can escape the hustle and bustle of the day. Even when relaxing inside, you feel as if you are in the middle of the garden thanks to the large and plentiful windows surrounding you. The only sounds we heard were the birds, who were also enjoying garden. Camille is welcoming and kind and has truly created a serene and lovely space fo repose. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us, Camille.

North Berkeley Backyard Cottage
I was in-and-out, but it seemed like the kind of place I could linger for a spell. It’s a credit to the cottage and how much quality sleep I got that I have so little to report. Our hosts were very quick to respond and eminently reasonable. The location was also excellent. I’d certainly do it again.

82 “ Pool, Jacuzzi , HOT SAUNA, VIEWS, Newer ADU!
We loved our time here! Not only were Darren and Laura wonderful hosts and communicators, but the property genuinely exceeded our expectations, the Airbnb was MORE beautiful in person than in the photos (hard to believe, I know), and the location of the neighborhood was incredible — high up on a hill of a beautiful and safe neighborhood. 😍 Only recommendation for future guests — book one extra day!! There is so much to do and such little time! We would’ve loved to have one more day to enjoy the Airbnb a little more. Would recommend to anyone and everyone!

Cottage Get-away in East Bay with Sweeping Views
Dai was SO helpful! Always responsive, helpful, and so flexible with my check in date/time, and overall stay in general. Beautiful view. Perfect for an individual or couple.

Eco-Cottage Sanctuary in Garden Oasis
we absolutely loved Chantelise's cottage. It was our first flight with our 7 month old and the space was perfect. Our son lived the micro farm. Such a beautiful space. We will be visiting again!

Beautiful Garden Bungalow
Great location! The garden was stunning and in bloom. Everything was as described and Victoria was a lovely host.

Sunny studio near UCB
It was a great stay. They have a beautiful property and garden. Berkley is a great walking city. It was fun to explore. This was my 2nd time to Berkeley, and my wife and kid's first. She loved the city. Thanks for a great stay.

Yvette and Mike's Garden Cottage
Yvette& Mike’s place was perfect for our stay. Clean, great amenities, well equipped kitchen. The bed was very comfortable and we really like the skylights with retractable blinds. The decor was fun with all the musical instruments, functional and attractive and the garden was secluded and lush. I could say more but overall, we had a very pleasant stay and highly recommend this place. We will stay again when visiting our daughter.

Beautiful Guesthouse in the Heart of Mill Valley
Jill’s place is fabulous. The deck overlooking the creek is even more beautiful and relaxing than we expected. A wonderful base for exploring Marin county, San Francisco, Point Reyes National Seashore and beyond. We would love to come back!

Sustainable Studio in Sunny San Rafael
Andrea's apartment is compact but beautifully appointed. I was working in San Francisco, and having the beauty, convenience and peacefulness of Marin County was well worth the 25 minutes. Whole Foods is a couple of blocks away, and the richness of 4th street restaurants and shops make this the perfect pied-a-terre. Thanks Andrea!

Guesthouse Garden Retreat
This was our first time staying in a guesthouse, and sharing a space with the owners, and I was completely blown away, we both felt right at home, so much so we didn’t wanna leave haha. Victor and Michelle gave us our privacy but also complete freedom to play music, relax on the patio, and roam around their absolutely beautiful backyard. We were able to come and go as we please and always know our things would be safe. The kitchen had everything you could need, the bed was extra comfy and the shower was a DREAM, the whole experience was incredibly cozy and peaceful. This was truly the best place we both have ever stayed, 1000% would recommend!!!

Sausalito Garden Stay
David’s place is amazing. It’s clear he cares a lot about the space, the garden and everything in-between. The apartment is a 15 min walk from everything you could need. I would definitely stay here next time I’m in SF. David and his dog Buster are both very friendly and kind hosts.

Pet-Friendly Guest House with Private Patio
Super spot for us! We were in town for a party and the host was great at checking in to make sure we had everything we needed! Lovely Airbnb!

Cottage in beautiful Woodacre, Marin
To say that this place was great is an understatement. It was extraordinary. The place was adorable. The decorating was done by someone with a real eye for balance and beauty (Martin.) There was every amenity that you could possibly need- plus surprise extras (like a noise machine for sleeping, lotions galore etc.) Martin was also very friendly and responsive. I highly recommend staying here to anyone visiting the area.

Mill Valley Garden View Guest House, Free Parking
This was my second time staying here, and definitely not my last. Caroline is an amazing host. She goes out of her way for her guests to make them feel welcome and at home.

Hillside Oasis Btwn SF, Napa w/ Big Views + Pool!
Melodie truly goes above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. She thought of things like Contact Lens Solution! This was the first time i’ve ever seen that in a care kit. I also can’t speak more to kindness as when she allowed me to stay an extra hour because I was having a hard time parting ways with this new found peace and comfort. Then I added a second hour and simply felt like extended family at that point. The heated saltwater pool under the blue sky surrounded by chirping birds and nature was extremely soothing to my spirit. I shall return.

Lightworks Treehouse Retreat
Sarah is a great host. It’s a beautiful and snug air bnb nestled close to downtown Mill Valley with great food and 10 minutes away from Muir Woods and beach. 10/10 stay here instead a local chain hotel.

Gorgeous Guest House with a Farmhouse Flair
My husband and I stayed here for our wedding night and it was absolutely perfect! The view is unreal and the chickens on the back side of the house are adorable and really quiet. Thank you Carissa!

Unique tiny house w huge windows & deck, near lake
The hosts were very helpful with any thing we needed during the stay. The space itself was a bit smaller than anticipated but very comfortable overall. The area is quiet and there’s a whole foods walking distance. Overall, great stay and convenient location.

Cozy Home + Garden in the Hills
Tara’s place is the perfect perch, nestled in the Berkeley Hills: enough space for a couple to cook, sleep, and get ready. It was a serene, relaxing place with just the right thoughtful touches. Tara was super responsive and even left us the sweetest take-home: a bouquet of rosemary! 😍

Rockridge Garden Cottage
My husband spent two nights at Nanci’s cottage (I was unable to go with him). He shared with me the place was spotless, private, quiet, well-appointed, in a great area with lots of walkable restaurants and coffee shops, very comfortable for sleep, and had a beautiful garden with wildflowers near the cottage entrance. It was a perfect spot for him. Highly recommended for a solo traveler or for a cozy couple. Would definitely consider again next time we’re in Oakland.

Tropical Garden Cottage +HOT TUB &POOL by Downtown
Description and pictures all matched. It was very private despite the main house being on-site. The hot tub was excellent and was so peaceful among pine and palm trees. Polina met us and showed us around. We did not use the pool but it was available. Bed, pillows and linens comfortable. We had very late nights due to our plans and felt easy and safe returning later at night. Parking on-site was appreciated.

Bright and cozy San Pablo hills studio.
I had a wonderful stay at Fernanda's Airbnb! The place was exceptionally clean, and super comfortable — exactly what I needed for a relaxing visit. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, and it truly felt like a home away from home.
Oakland CA (Rockridge) Studio
Had a wonderful stay with my four-year-old daughter for my birthday. The location is lovely, being able to walk down to college Avenue. We got in quite late, I would recommend asking host to turn on the heat if you think you might come in on the later side- the radiant floors are lovely but do take some time to heat up. Great artistic touches and hosts are very responsive and helpful.
